About this listen
Salem had a Chinatown downtown from the late 19th Century through the early 20th Century. Salem's Chinese contributed significantly to Salem's community and culture during this period, with George Lai Sun serving as a key leader in this community. While Salem's Chinatown is no longer extant downtown, we still have evidence of their culture and tradition, which can still be found within Salem’s Pioneer Cemetery where we continue celebrating the Qing Ming Festival.
To learn more please see the OHQ Article Searching for Salem’s Early Chinese Community as well as Russell Lowe’s book A Willow Tree Becomes a Forest.
